I came across this photo and couldn't stop looking at it. The little white chapel sits so quietly right above the sea, with that soft light making everything feel still.

The old bells in the belfry look good with that soft light on them. It makes you think of the silence after every beat.

After the rain, the cobblestones in the yard shine so much that it seems as if the stone has become smooth and alive. The silence there must be special.

Here the rays break through the clouds right above the cathedral. What immediately comes to mind is how the light still finds its way.

This white church across the river looks so peaceful at dusk. Makes you think about how quiet everything can be when the day is winding down.

The roses in the church garden bloomed beautifully this year. It reminds me how simple and concrete God's care for the little ones is.
